Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2659 (Two Thousand Six Hundred and Fifty Nine) Pursuit

"It won't happen either." Li Pingrun said, "You are not an alchemist, but you will not be controlled by it either."

Li Pingrun took the initiative to tell Tie Wandao what he wanted to ask. He was very satisfied with Li Pingrun's performance at the moment, and he felt relieved. However, he was curious about the copper square plate, so he asked, "Can't this thing control people's minds?"

Li Pingrun said: "It can only control the minds of certain people. It cannot control the minds of the vast majority of people."

"Whose mind can be controlled?" Tie Wandao asked.

"I don't know either." Li Pingrun said, "When the alchemist invented this thing, it was just to control the mind of the person he wanted to control."

Tie Wandao was curious: "Guess whose mind it can control?"

Li Pingrun said: "Chief, since you asked me to guess, I will just say it casually. It is very likely not true. If you find out in the future that the facts are not related to what I said, I hope you will not pursue it."

Tie Wandao said, "Alright, alright, stop talking so much. Just guess if I ask you to. What is there to be afraid of? Before, you said you were sure that the young patriarch was fine. Later, the young patriarch fainted. Aren't you still alive now?"

When Li Pingrun heard Tie Wandao mention Tie Hongyan's fainting again, he became nervous again, which made him dare not say it casually. However, Tie Wandao had just accused him of talking too much, and he did not dare to ask Tie Wandao again whether he would pursue him. So he looked at Tie Wandao, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Tie Wandao probably saw what he was thinking, so he said, "I won't pursue you, just tell me!" Li Pingrun said, "I guess there seems to be some connection between this underground space and Muxi Pavilion, so I suspect that this copper square plate may be used to control the mind of the person who committed suicide in Muxi Pavilion."

Tie Wandao thought: Could it be that this underground space was set up by my father? Is it related to that blue-armored man? What is going on with these things underground? Could it be that they were built for that person? It's just a blue-armored man. If my father really spent so much effort to do such a thing, then why? My father should hate that blue-armored man, right? Why did he do so many things here? Hey, this is just Li Pingrun's guess, not the fact, why should I take it seriously? But... why do I feel that what Li Pingrun said makes sense? Besides, although he said he was guessing, he is usually very cautious in speaking. Except for the fact that Hongyan was not right, everything he told me seriously before or said he guessed was almost right.

Li Pingrun saw that Tie Wandao seemed to be thinking about something and was a little worried. He immediately added: "Patriarch, I'm really just guessing. You don't have to take it too seriously."

Tie Wandao said "hmm" and then said to Li Pingrun: "After you performed the ritual, you knew that this copper square plate could control people's minds. Did you get any other information?"

Li Pingrun said, "Also, the copper square plate has been there for many years and has not changed much. The wall behind it seems to have collapsed recently. This seems to be man-made."

"Has anyone been here recently?" Tie Wandao asked.

Li Pingrun said, "That's right, otherwise the wall over there wouldn't have collapsed by itself."

"Who would come here?" Tie Wandao asked.
